Writing can be done in both an academic and artistic manner! As long as the basics of writing have been ingrained, writing can become a powerful extension of your unique personality and experiences.
About Austin Y.

Hello! My name is Austin, and my personal life motto is: doing my best to help others realize and reach their best! I have been teaching a number of topics ranging from music, fitness, to technology, writing, and religious texts for over 15 years. During these years, I have also worked a myriad of jobs to receive invaluable experience as well as learn how to interact with all kinds of people. It has always been my passion and joy to journey along with someone who is simply willing to learn the many gifts that life has for us to enjoy! I am currently working full-time at a church, and a certified teacher here at TakeLessons. During my free time, I like to go to the gym, play games, go on walks, eat good food, and hangout with loved ones. Time and time again, I have come to realize that life is about serving, teaching, and loving others with what we already have; teaching is such a simple yet profound way to practice this! I look forward to doing my best in order to help you realize, reach, and ultimately relish your best! Best regards, Austin

Austin is an amazing tutor. My son has been taking lessons with him since April 2019. We've seen great improvement in my son's writing skills, and he is now in an English honor's class. My son no longer needs a writing tutor, but looking through Austin's reviews, I see that he teaches guitar. My son also wants to learn guitar. So Austin, we may just be signing back up with you for guitar lessons in the near future!!!!!
